Drums.ABOUT
My band (Madeira Drive) have been known as Everafta in the South East since 1999. We are looking for a new drummer to complete a refreshed line up with a new name. You can listen to some recent demo's with our current drummer at myspace/madeiradriveuk. Current drummer has officially left the band but is helping us out with already booked gigs until we find a replacement. We have a studio album in the final mix stage, approximately 20 songs from our back catalogue we still gig and 6 or 7 newbies being written now. We require a new drummer to complete the line-up so we can get gigging again. We are serious musicians (although we all have to do the day job thang in order to pay the bills) with the drive and ambition to make it. We have loads of experience and loads of industry contacts. We've played shows to 2 or 3 people and shows to 2 or 3 thousand people in the crowd. We have had a bit of success over the years and now are pushing to the next level. Please contact me if you are a drummer serious about music and wanting to be part of a fully established band. We currently rehearse on Tuesday nights in Horsham, West Sussex and we will be gigging as often as possible once the line up is complete. We would prefer a drummer over 18 with own kit and transport as this makes gigging, rehearsing etc. much easier. However, if you have the ability and are interested apply anyone as we are happy to chat and jam with all.
